A structure-activity relationship study of potent TIQ15-derived CXCR4 antagonists is reported. In this investigation, the TIQ15 side-chain was constrained to improve its drug properties. The cyclohexylamino congener was found to be a potent CXCR4 inhibitor (IC = 33 nM in CXCL12-mediated Ca flux) with enhanced stability in liver microsomes and reduced inhibition of CYP450 (2D6). The improved CXCR4 antagonist has potential therapeutic application as a single agent or combinatory anticancer therapy.
